It's crazy that people could see NFTs were a scam but can't see the same concept in virtual coins.

I'm not defending other cryptocoins or anything, they might be a ponzy scheme or some other form. But in the end they at least only pretended to be that, a valuta. Which they are, even though they aren't really used much like that. NFT's on the otherhand promised things that were always just pure technical bullshit. And you had to be a complete idiot not to see it. So call it a double scam.

It's crazy that people see crypto as a scam but can't see the same concept in fiat currencies.

Governments don't accept cryptocurrencies for taxes. They're not real currencies.

Because the pyramid scheme is still going strong with them, exactly because new victims are continually falling for them. NFTs lost their hype so quickly that the flow of new victims basically completely stopped, and so the bottom went out of them much faster.

because there are some buisness that accept some crypto, mostly grey or black market ones, but respectable companies none the less.
